Gnome is great because of the large UI size. Like my 14" notebook has a roughly 2800x1600 screen resolution and it’s still pretty usable without any UI scaling. If the bars are an inch tall, you’re either using a huge TV or a screen from the garbage dump. Gnome really needs a modern system.

Java only has instanceof and getClass, not typeof.

In spring, I put a few sprouting potatoes in the compost, waited a few month and since July or so I have a huge bucket of homegrown potatoes that I have problems to use up. So very easy food source. Can recommend. There were a few pill bugs/ potato bugs who love the taste of the plants, but their damage had not much effect on the harvest in the end.

“most” would be an exaggeration, but many are. Other animals commonly used in placeholder names are also horse, chicken and lion.

Pig was just the most common meat animal, so any unknown animal that you’d eat would he called an xyz pig. Apple was also used like this for all kinds of fruits and vegetables:

orange = Chinese apple

tomato = golden apple (?)

pomegranate = granate apple

potato = earth apple

jimsonweed = thorn apple

And so on

It’s Meta/Facebook. If people don’t at least strongly suspect that they’ll collect as much personal data as they possibly can, they’re living behind the moon.
